An Alert Level 4 means that a hazardous explosive eruption is possible within hours to days; and warrants a ?Danger Zone? of up to 14 kilometres from the Main Crater. Taal Volcano is amongst the most active volcanoes in the Philippines, with more than 30 reported eruptions. According to DOST- PHIVOLCS, eruptive activity at Taal Volcano Main Crater has intensified, with continuous eruptions generating a 10 - 15 kilometres of steam laden cloud of super-heated ash, with frequent volcanic lightning that has rained wet ashfall as far as Quezon City, some 100km away. Volcanic tremors have been reported, with volcanic earthquakes measuring magnitude 2.5 and 3.9 felt at Intensity III (Weak) in Batangas province. As of 19:00 on 12 January 2020, power supplies in areas of Batangas in the vicinity of Taal Volcano have been disrupted, and roads are impassable. Taal Volcano is situated on Volcano Island, an island near the middle Taal Island, and is listed as a ?Permanent Danger Zone?, with permanent settlement on the island not recommended.  EQ-2020-000001-PRI Earthquake Puerto Rico Medium humanitarian impact, magnitude 6.4M tsunami generates 0.15m  AC-2019-000200-KHM Tech.
